Finding the right trolley.

You can't play once during the weekend and expect your game to improve. Which is why I have been trying to find the time to walk the course (9 holes) once during a weekday evening. Plus it's good exercise.

So far I have done it twice now. The first time with a friend's four wheel trolley and the second carrying my stand bag. Carrying the stand bag isn't too taxing and it does give a good work out. But I find there is less fidgeting and movement required with the trolley compared with the stand bag. (First world problems, I know.) 

Anyhoo, I had been researching for a bit now on trolleys and decided that I was in the market for a push trolley with either 3 or 4 wheels. The Clicgear 3 / 3.5+ was an obvious choice but even it's discounted price of RM890.00 / RM920.00 was unkind to the wallet. Plus, I was going to use it once a week at the most and couldn't justify the purchase. 

I should also mention that before I made my eventual purchase, checks at MST, Pan West, LT Sports (all in Kuching) revealed there was no stock of trolleys. Tis must be the season of walking. 

I was heading over to KL anyway so I was quite set on getting one there.

So, the check list.

1. Push Cart

2. 3 -4 wheeler

3. Light

4. Compact when folded and easy to use

5. Did it come with accessories?

6. Below RM500.00

With the price range in mind, I said a sad farewell to the clicgear and looked on. Considered the bagboy express DLX trolley which was available at Transview and was available at RM500.00 on the dot. (items 1,2,3,4 and 6 ticked). MST @ Midvalley had the 3 wheel Aerocart for RM399.00 but it was rather bulky when folded and didn't come with any accessories.

Then I had a look at the trolleys from Axglo and considered the 4 wheel flip and go cart. Pricier though. So I looked at the 3 wheel Trilite model which retailed for RM599.00 (RM690.00 at one shop I checked), still pricey but I liked how it included some accessories like the umbrella and beverage holder. Fortunately, I managed to find the Trilite for RM490.00 (All items ticked! comes with 1 year warranty too) from an online store, BestBallGolf.  

Tarmizi, the seller was friendly and super helpful. Told him that I didn't have transport, so he took the trouble to send it all the way to Midvalley. The trolley was brand new in box and after inspecting it, I was more then happy to make the purchase. BestBallGolf also sell the 4 wheel Axglo and other golf accessories too like grips, balls etc so definitely worth checking out. 

Ta-dah! (Spent RM10.00 at KLIA to wrap it up)

In other news, MST @ Aeon, Midvalley are having a sale at the moment and had some PUMA attire up for sale. Shirts and Shorts below RM100.00. I Like!

Needless to say, I bought 2 shirts and a pair of shorts to add to my ever growing collection of PUMA gear. Good selection and discounts on Bell and Page attire too.

Haven't unpacked the Trilite yet so I will do a more detailed review when I bring it down to the course.
